I have read the site rules... of course. Being the lover of rules that I am. =P
I'm a transgirl, I go by the name Sarah. I'm in my early stage, as I'm seeing a specialist right now and have yet to be approved for anything like HRT. I'm 18, and I came out to my parents in March of this year. They are supportive, though my brother doesn't really accept me... at all. But, with the support of both my parents and an array of wonderful friends, I've been proudly taking each step closer to that light I've long held onto amidst what I'd call the darkness that occupies the empty part of my being. When I'm whole, I feel it'll be amazing... well, I know it will. I've been through my phases of doubt, but I recently managed to overcome any last doubts about who I am... completely. It's made me feel a lot happier, a lot lighter. As happy as I feel when I put on proper clothes.
SO anyway, it's nice to meet all of you! I think I'll be very happy I signed up here. :]

Thank you for the welcomes!
So do I... trouble is... he himself has a generalized vendetta against women. Which makes things even more difficult. But I'll hope for the best, and prepare for the worst. My mom, though, has been great in supporting me; she is nicely proactive in the way she does it. To be accepted as a daughter is a wonderful feeling!

He's 24, my only sibling, and he has a blanket mistrust towards women because of negative experiences with ones he's been romantically involved with in his life.

Dear Sarah,
Yes, welcome!
As for your brother ... heh heh ... is it possible that he's jealous?? That he'd like to transition, but doesn't have the courage to admit it? Not even to himself?
Just a thought. Although I admit it's an evil one! >:-)

awesome about your parents, especially @ such a young age and just starting to transition, I'm envious!! Welcome indeed Sarah!! my new roommate, who is also M2F, has picked Sarah for her name. A really popular name :)

Hi Sarah,
Welcome to our little family. Over 2089 strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion. Feel free to post your successes/failures, Hopes/dreams. Ask questions and seek answers. Give and receive advice.
But remember we are family here, your family now. And it is always nice to have another sister. And that is in addition to those total awesome parents of yours. May be you can teach your brother that all women are not alike.

Thank you so much... I'm happy here already. All of you are very kind, and I wish everyone here the best. :]
I appreciate the amazing support I have from my parents, every day, knowing that not everyone's so fortunate to have that kind of acceptance; or not so soon. Sarah does seem to be a popular name, but it means so much to me... each Sarah is different, each one has a different story and person behind it... it's great. ^^
